virginia tech a little bit. >> tim: this is where the building and the history comes in to play. it is never easy getting a win in the carrier dome. i think now there is some debate over really who did call the time-out, that is what they are trying to find out. so boeheim clearly feels that williams called it and buzz is saying no, the hall of famer called it. that is what the debate is over. clearly if bay hype i charged with the time-out he's out. phoeul that is the big >> mike: that is the point. >> tim: virginia tech has plenty. they cap stop the clock

they've got three. i don't mind williams saying that wasn't me, that was him, from a tra at the strategic standpoint that puts boeheim in a difficult spot. we're waiting for word from the officials. perhaps we had a clock stoppage without anyone calling a time-out. so maybe both coaches got a freebee. that seems to be the explanation john gaffney is giving us. >> mike: the clock stopped at 1:01, shouldn't stop until it goes under 1:00, so they took three seconds off and syracuse got charged with a time-out. >> tim: so they are out of time-outs, which is important here in the last 55 seconds. bibbs in a position almost for over and back. >> mike: both feet and ball

bibbs fouled by lydon. so tyler lydon has four. here is to your point, mike. >> mike: even it goes over it is not an over and back. both feet have to be in the frontcourt. >> tim: bibbs a 70 pear free-throw70% free-throw shooter. syracuse with the quick burst, cut to it two. >> mike: still plenty of time. even if he makes the shot it is a two-possession game you don't have to go for the three now, you can go for a quick two. >> tim: it is a one-possession game, loose

cooney comes away with it. syracuse can tie with a three, cut to it one with a two. there is a ten second discrepancy between the shot and game clock. gbinije! take that! wham awhat a dagger, 56-56 at the carrier dome. time-out, virginia tech. with poise and almost got away, virginia tech almost got this offensive rebound, everybody hustling for it,

then gbinije was at least six or seven feet behind the three-point line, almost at the "s" with the game-tying shot. here is the thing, tim, this is for virginia tech right now, buzz williams has to be pumping them up but you have to get something going to the rim. give yourself a little bit of time to get the offensive rebound, but put pressure on the referee to make the call. >> tim: without a doubt our continental tire play of the game driven by continental tire and yeah, this was really deep. this was almost taken from manley field house. i think in that direction. wow. >> mike: we talked about how solid he has been all year long for this

to come by in this conference, a power conference like the acc on the road. >> mike: i have to go with bibbs, just because he has the size to get in the lane and get a shot. >> tim: ability to drive in. one of those guards. robinson, back in with bibbs. and allen. blackshear has been helpful. cooney challenges, here is bibbs, right on cue, it won't go, gbinije has a shot at it. he gives it to richardson! we're going to overtime. >> mike: the guy we thought would take the shot did and almost got an offensive rebound but a really good shot with only 2.5 seconds

>> mike: in today's college basketball when a player like bibbs and there you see at the end, it was almost there for richardson, most of the time, a guard goes on straight line, he is at least going to get to the foul line, syracuse did a

shutting bibbs down. >> tim: tied at 56-56 as we come to the beginning of overtime. coming from down 9, down the stretch of this syracuse both teams have played and you see what their story has been. >> mike: for the first couple minutes for virginia tech they have to feel like they had this one. >> tim: yeah, --

the confidence. >> tim: they were in a position late to put this game away. that seth allen runner is where it turned. syracuse had two big answers, one of two, another a three. and suddenly it was game on. virginia tech trying to hang tough but you see gbinije wit answer. that is the first lead of the game for syracuse. they had tied it at the end of regulation. this is the first lead, that was a two. >> mike: jim boeheim doesn't show a lot of emotion but motioning to the crowd to get in the last five minutes. >> tim: blackshear goes reversal puts it in past lydon. >> mike: i was shaking my head, that was a tough

>> tim: it 5-5 in the league after a tough kept it going, a near miss at home against georgia tech and now virginia tech taking them in overtime hokies were 4-1, they have been in virtually all of them! bibbs, out of bounds last touched by blackshear. gbinije and blackshear are the guys responsible for the scoring early in ot. >> mike: the opening jump

the end of the shot clock, lydon giving up the baseline that time. >> tim: two minutes gone by in the ot. cooney off the curl. cooney off the curl! and he delivers like a heavyweight. >> mike: that is the example of an upper classmen who had a long night but coming up big when it matters. >> tim: he loves running that curl. that is the first time he had room. listen to this crowd. >> mike: this is not an e see shot for a right-handed player to come back to the left and then square up and make the jump shot with the defense coming after you. >> tim: well, think how devin wilson must have been feeling. he was shadowing him all night but this cooney hit

will not soon be forgotten in syracuse. acc basketball is being brought to you by: >> tim: in so many way, mike gminski, the game was shaping up the way the road team would have liked it. they kept cooney at bay much of the night. as you suggested at the outset, what is the difference in syracuse, how you defend trevor cooney. >> mike: that was a good screen and he had enough space. he has had a defender in his shirt most of the game. >> tim: we mentioned down nine late and syracuse gone through a six minute drought, but an amazing comed back to get us where we are, which is in overtime.

and richardson stepping up, making this big step back three. lydon with the dunk, that has been a terrific play for syracuse. then this was one at the end, 27 seconds left. then bibbs able to get up over cooney but couldn't come up with that offensive rebound and syracuse the rush up the floor, this almost went down. skirt with a 13-3 run, tim, in the 1:29 in the second half. >> tim: amazing home run in a building where we have seen many through the years. out of the time-out let's see what buzz can draw up. starts right there. inside out from blackshear to bibbs. bibbs needs help. finds it from gbinije on the run-out. lydon the follow! >> mike: gbinije knew he

he had lydon trailing the play. >> tim: blackshear, count it and a foul. this big fella is hard to deal with when he gets the ball that close to the rim. >> mike: there is the look. this is what you do, tim, you don't give up or concede the layup, both guys going for the block, let the offensive rebound. but blackshear has been very solid with his post moves inside. >> tim: tyler lydon, his fifth foul, he's done for the night. that means coleman, who has not been in the game for some time will check back in. and join roberson and richardson along the front line. >> mike: you lose a big offensive weapon with that

the ball game. 13 points and 6 rebounds in this game. really played well. how about gbinije has been able to play with four fouls for a long time. >> tim: yeah, his basketball be a acumen has been stretched through the course of both halfs, really. he committed 3 and 4 as quickly as 1 and 2. in the second half as well as the first. the iron unkind for blackshear. the lead is three and syracuse with possession.

richardson for malachi rising hig >> mike: that is not a freshman playing, he has shown me robinson, too strong, the put-back, does not fall for leday, and we have a tie ball, arrow to virginia tech. >> mike: 39% from the floor, 36% from the three. that is a look of frustration, richardson made that play all by >> tim: buzz williams gets the time-out. 1:13 left. >> mike: only two points in the second half and overtime

i hadhad a chance on that offensive rebound to score. >> tim: you made a good point about what syracuse took back, the high low entry from the elbow and what turnovers we have see seen late for virginia tech have been passing made in traffic knock aid way and scramble situations led to the gbinije three just a moment ago. >> mike: they were 5 of 10 at the half and taken one in the second half. >> tim: the difference in the three-point shooting. cooney hit that one off the curl, gbinije two tremendous touches. right to virginia tech's solar plexus. the hokies have been tough tonight, see if they answer. leday, not this time.

quick foul. 60 seconds left as this >> mike: leday shoots 43% from three, capable of knocking that shot down. >> tim: the thing you notice and i understand this nine-game suspension was something everyone thought knew was going to happen, jim boeheim was not aware until two days before the georgetown game, to mike hopkins credit he did all he could. jim said it is still my team. and every coach in america is going to be a head coach needs to have their team. i think there is no doubt that his presence has made them better defensively. >> mike: the thing is for hopkins when you're an assistant, a different relationship, you're the good cop. when you have to be the head

hard transition to make in a short period of time. >> tim: syracuse has started the trend upward. leday, missed that one and it was from pointblank range. syracuse's defense much better down low here in the latter stages. >> mike: but still, that is a shot that he has to convert and has converted all year long for them. >> tim: getting over the hump, that is where virginia tech is. there is no doubt they are more competitive, light years better than a season san franciscoago, now confidence shaken on the road, will take a while to breakthrough. >> mike: not that any of them hurt any more than another but this one has a chance to linger a little bit, i think. >> tim: it does. i go back to the run tear wasrunner that was missed by

then a turnover and quick bucket allowing cooney to run the curl. and everything changed. virginia tech needs something quickly. >> mike: a bad pass to close it out. >> tim: a lot of guys passing upshots for buzz. as toughs that loss will be for virginia tech, security security dodged a dodged a big one here. one of the storied programs in college basketball. they may be new to the acc, but trying toin here on the road is old news for all

what league you're in. boeheim's orange get the victory. his sixth in 11 acc tries.

in just a moment. >> tim: 68 60. once the game was tied, syracuse outscored virginia tech, 15-4. and win the game 68-60. one of the stars of the game, was michael gbinije, he's with our mike gminski. >> i'm joined by michael gbinije and coach jim boeheim. michael talk about the last shot at the end of regulation and to tie the game up. >> we wanted to run a ball screen and they jumped the play and i saw a wide open shot i just took it. >> what were you thinking

to tie this game, where was the resolve coming from to get back in? >> we wanted to win. we watched the scoreboard and we had tough guys tonight, we toughed it out, got stops when we needed to, had big contributors off the bench. >> you were down, you started out with four losses, where is the resolve come to get on the run you're on now? >> all about competing. each loss we had hurt, and we're trying to get to the tournament, obviously, and only way to get there is to win that what is we're trying to do. >> congratulations on the win. good job. jim, i want to go back what was it like the first practice back, the first game back after being away? >> it was hard, we had north carolina, we played great but they were great, too. but you know, these guys have gone to work, this is the first bad game we've had. we played great, we played great against north carolina, loss, great at virginia in the loss there.

didn't seem to have our legs, it is tough playing thursday saturday, tuesday, i don't care who, and we're playing six guys, i thought at the end, we had to make five or six plays in a row and we did. tyler lydon did, a couple blocks down there, and hit a couple big shots down here which we've done in this run but it was a great -- an unbelievable character win to come back like that when you're that far down. >> how about trevor connie, cooney who struggle and made big shots. >> i called that play, no reason i should have called that play, we called it and he didn't have a good look and he made that three. that was the key shot right there. that got us some space. >> congratulations, great to see you back on the bench, too, good job. >> good to be back, i don't have to stay home and listen to you so i can be here.

>> thanks, jim. >> tim: always a good humor. after a victory like that why wouldn't he be? jim boeheim, hall of famer, he got away with one, this could have been a speed bump along the highway to march after that poor shooting start for his team. as you look at numbers, virginia tech struggled in the second half as well, both just around the 40, 39% area, and syracuse's defense particularly late in the game, mike, i thought was the difference in the basketball game. they just did not allow those bounce pass entries near the bucket for leday. >> mike: i think this is a loss that is really going to sting for virginia tech, five in a row now, this one they had in hand, we touched on in the last couple

key of a team ina everybodyyke of a losing team, they got their legs back underneath them at the right time. >> tim: buzz is about resolve and faith and i'm sure that he's going to be calling on all of that from this point forward. but for syracuse, mike, you look at the rest of the schedule if they can get to say 9-9 in the league and at 6 now, 6-5, i think this is a team you get in the tournament i don't care what seed you are, they are dangerous. >> mike: i think probably a good showing in the acc tournament would certainly help but i think this team has a different resolve with jim boeheim at the helm, obviously. >> tim: no doubt. there is a reason why the guy has won as many gameses he has in 40 years. great to be back at the carrier dome in syracuse. good to be with you again, my friend. always a pleasure. for our entire crew here, alex, our director, outstanding lonnie, t
